Thank you again so much Chad! He indeed said that this “Made his year!” Mr. Luck greatly appreciates all of the kind words coming from everyone all over the country as well! ❤️

[@LazyDaisyDay88]

I think you're a wonderful person for helping to make this happen. My very best wishes to Carlton - wishing him a speedy recovery and many more years watching Chad live the best ever Van Life! (from the UK) :-)

Chad is the type of guy who takes you on an adventure, shows you how to drive, demonstrates survival skills, shares the most beautiful views, teaches you how to cook, and provides mentoring on living life! The transitional background music is also so meditating and soothing. This channel is rare to come by!

Chad, you should get yourself a dog. You'll never feel lonely with a dog, no matter how far you travel.They are called "man's best friend" for a reason. Love your videos. I always look forward to watching them and you never dissapoint. Carlton, may God bless you, heal you and give you comfort in your time of illness. May His angels wrap their wings around you and give you peace. Love from Canada.

Chad, you could easily sell out to someone like the Discovery Chanel, but if you did, the purity of your You Tube channel would be lost in scripted episodes. Thank you for your videography and your honesty that makes your vlogs genuine to the viewers. Your following can only get stronger. Thank you for your hard work and sharing your experiences world wide.

Chad, you sold out when you went to Baja, then posted it. Not why we watch man.

Carlton, I really hope that your health is improving. It's shows like this that keeps us going. I've been hospitalized since the 2nd of Oct, had three surgeries and when admitted they found MRSA, SEPSIS and I had Covid 19 and a small growth Now after 23 days being in the ICU, I'm now Covid Recovered, SEPSIS and MRSA are gone, no more wound vacuum replacements, now all I've got left is a lot of therapy. Mr Luck my prayers are with you. And for the Van life, you've outdone yourself again. Thanks for your time and motivation for us less unfortunate. Looking forward to your next show.

That rut you mentioned, yeah you’ve helped me out of mine. I’m now in my early 50s. While in my 20s and 30s I went hard. XC mtb racer, snowboarder, whitewater, you get the point. But then the rut began and was going strong for 10 years. I’ve since bought another Outback and started exploring the highlands in Southwest Va. Lots of solo trips bagged and have myself inspired a few friends to come along. Thanks, Chad.

[@karenhenderson3889]

Chad you give so much inspiration to so many of us. Showing the beauty of this planet that we will never see. Your shout out to Carlton and his outstanding caregiver is exactly why I watch every episode you produce. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

[@robin6564]

Not sure if you’ll see this comment but my daughter and I saw you at Village Market in Moab buying some eggs. She so badly wanted me to say hi but I didn’t want to be that creepy guy interrupting your evening. 😂 I'll just say hi this way! That place is one of the most beautiful places I have seen. We took the off-road trail to Top of the World overlooking onion creek last week. Hi from New Mexico!

Keep fighting the good fight, Carlton! Thank you for helping us all experience this beauty, Chad.

I’m from SC but spent a month in Utah a couple of years ago camping .Saw the Mighty Five as well as Monument Valley. What a contrast from my area I’m from. It is magical around each corner. This episode brought back some great memories. There is a great salt they sale in that area Redmond Real Salt that comes from an ancient inland sea. As much as you enjoy cooking it will be a great addition to your seasoning arsenal. Nothing better than a meal cooked over hard wood. Keep on keeping on.

[@star4evr9]

This is the first LTVL I have seen. A friend sent the link today. Now I can't wait to get out there! Thank you. Great job, Great adventure.

[@woodsandcreeks]

Whoa this was some top quality stuff. Amazing photography, wood scraping, setting up the fire, cooking, the time lapse, your choice of music especially that harmonica (40:21) after the meal, all made it feel like a visual novella (for the lack of a better word). Can't wait to see how cozy the Van Life in winter with the sprinter will turn out.

Hang in there Carlton! My dad dealt with bladder cancer a few years back, he was able to overcome it and you will too!! Be strong buddy!

[@chaosncheckt9356]

Great video. Love Rving and we get out as often as we can but sometimes it just feels there are too many distractions to truly enjoy ourselves. You def need to keep things in perspective; what's important to do, what's nice to do, and what fits in the "whatever box". I use to travel with a camera, gopro, dashcam, and Iphone and lug three of them when hiking and I found I wasn't enjoying the hike. Now, I just stick with my iphone. I know you are making a living doing this so kudos to you cause I know there is a ton of work behind the scenes that you do to make your channel great. Where's the dog you use to travel with? Dog's are great companions. Have you considered putting a link in your description to your menu/cooking etc? I'm always on the lookout for a new meal on the road but I am a terrible cook unless I've got some clear idea. Safe travels.

This might be the best episode yet. I think I liked every second of it, from the landscape, travel, cinematography, music, editing, philosophy, and shout outs. I am especially happy to see that Code Brown was the final bit of inspiration to get you out there, as I also really dig his channel and think he is criminally underwatched, undersubbed, and under appreciated.

Can't help but make one more comment. After watching many of ur shows, it's become very clear u have an appreciable filming ability. I would venture to say, u probably produce as good, if not better footage, and editing, than any channel out there. Great job on that, in fact, I could kinda say it's too good for just a u-tube channel. More power to u.
